Elon Musk's Daughter Responds To Trump-Musk Fallout
Vivian Jenna Wilson shared her thoughts on the viral feud between President Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
It only took a few minutes for Tesla CEO's daughter to chime in after her dad dropped a now-deleted bombshell accusation against Trump, alleging the president's name was in the FBI files on Jeffrey Epstein.
If you didn't know, Elon's 21-year-old daughter has been estranged from her father since coming out as trans, but she's remained a vocal critic of her father's actions and involvement in politics.
"I mean, I'll see things about him in the news and think, That's fucking cringe, I should probably post about this and denounce it, which I have done a few times," Vivan told Teen Vogue back in March.
Well, now that her dad and the president are trending for their big fallout, it's no surprise Vivian would find a way to address it.
A quick recap: On Jun. 4, Elon voiced his opposition to Trump's "One Big, Beautiful Bill," which didn't go over well with the president.
Speaking with reporters, Trump responded, "I'm very disappointed because Elon knew the inner workings of this bill better than almost anybody. He had no problem with it. All of the sudden he had a problem, and he only developed the problem when he found out we're gonna have to the cut EV mandate... He hasn't said bad about me personally, but I'm sure that'll be next. But I'm very disappointed in Elon. I've helped Elon a lot."
Elon fired back with X posts on Jun. 5, claiming the president "would have lost the election," and Trump's response is a sign of "ingratitude."
Then, when Trump threatened to "terminate Elon's Governmental Subsidies and Contracts," Elon dropped his "really big bomb" of an X post, which has since been removed.
Elon's now-deleted X post read, "Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!"
Although Elon has since removed the X post claiming the president's name was in the Epstein files, the claim went viral, so of course, his daughter, who's been critical of her billionaire father in the past, had to post about it.
Vivian posted a video of herself with the caption, "I love being proven right."
In the video, she says, "I do not want to comment," before laughing on camera.
Vivian also posted an Instagram Story of her Threads post, which read, "Such beauty in life," with Chase Icon's "Job Application" playing in the background.
If it wasn't obvious that Vivian was throwing a little shade at Elon and President Trump's online feud, people in the comments sure as heck made it clear.
"I love that everyone knows EXACTLY what you're talking about with just 4 words. I fucking L O V E I T," one person wrote.
Another person said Vivian was "the best at giving shade without naming anyone."
People were really celebrating with Vivian in the replies.
Finally, somebody wrote, "I really hope you're taking this day to put your feet up with a glass of wine. You've endured so much shit -this must feel glorious."
Whew. What a week!

FIRST ON FOX: High ranking DOJ official resigns post to run for attorney general in red state
FIRST ON FOX: Aaron Reitz, a top official in President Donald Trump's Department of Justice, has resigned his post in the administration to run for attorney general of Texas, entering what he is calling a "fight for the soul of Texas." Reitz, a former Marine and chief of staff to Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, served in the Trump administration under U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi as the assistant attorney general for the Office of Legal Policy. Following speculation of a possible run for Texas attorney general, one of the most powerful positions in the state, Reitz resigned his position with the DOJ on Wednesday and officially launched his campaign the day after.

Read On The Fox News App "As Attorney General, I'll use every ounce of legal firepower to defend President Trump, crush the radical Left, advance the America and Texas First agenda, and look out for everyday Texans," he said. This comes as current Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is running in hopes of replacing incumbent Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, in one of the most hotly contested primary races of the year.

New megabill text revives land sales, axes IRA funding
The Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee's portion of Republicans' party-line bill proposes to sell off certain public lands and repeal billions of dollars for energy programs in Democrats' 2022 climate law. The committee's proposal, unveiled Wednesday evening, contains many of the provisions in the House-passed H.R. 1, the 'One Big, Beautiful Bill Act' — including ones that would target the Department of Energy's Loan Programs Office or charge a one-time fee to speed up permitting for some natural gas projects. But there are some significant differences. Most notable is a new section favored by Chair Mike Lee (R-Utah) to revive the sale of public lands, reigniting a firestorm of opposition from advocates. The provision goes further than an abandoned proposal in the House, encompassing Bureau of Land Management and Forest Service lands across 11 Western states. Advertisement ENR's text comes as the Senate is racing to tweak and quickly vote on tax, energy and national security legislation after the House approved its version last month. Republicans are working through the reconciliation process, which will allow them to skirt the Senate filibuster and pass the budget-focused bill with simple majorities.

Businesses to lawmakers: Don't mess with Energy Star
Business groups are urging Congress to resist Trump administration efforts to privatize Energy Star, the efficiency program for home appliances and building materials. 'Clear legislative authorization backs ENERGY STAR as a voluntary public-private partnership run by the federal government,' more than 30 trade groups said Wednesday in a letter to lawmakers. 'We respectfully request that ENERGY STAR not be supplanted by non-governmental efforts that could significantly alter and overly complicate the program.' Led by the Real Estate Roundtable, the letter was signed by the National Association of Manufacturers; American Chemistry Council; Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers; Air-Conditioning, Heating and Refrigeration Institute; and other groups. Advertisement The letter went to Senate Energy and Natural Resources Chair Mike Lee (R-Utah) and ranking member Martin Heinrich (D-N.M.), Senate Environment and Public Works Chair Shelley Moore Capito ( and ranking member Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.), and House Energy and Commerce Chair Brett Guthrie (R-Ky) and ranking member Frank Pallone (D-N.J.)
